Meet Jaimie Alexander, Thor 2's resident hottie, who recently made waves when she hit the premiere carpet in a hella-sheer, cut-out dress that had us all abuzz. (Although we do know how to rock the sheer trend now!) Alexander's take on the statement-making number? "I tried it on, twirled around in it and made sure everything was covered," she told SELF. "I felt really good in the dress -- empowered and classy. It was a great fashion risk to take." Bold, Jaimie, and we love it. We asked the Thor actress about working out, looking good and how she likes to chill out when she's not on set.

1. If I could only do one workout, I’d…

…Pick hot yoga. I do it as often as I can! I find it’s a great workout that helps avoid any injuries, plus it also helps me really relax.

2. When I need extra motivation, I….

…Remind myself how I’m going to feel after [the workout]. When you hang onto that mantra, you can trust it’ll work, even if you’re not into [your workout] that day. You get up, you go to the gym — and then you feel incredibly empowered afterwards.

3. I can’t stop moving when ___________ comes on my iPod.

Anything by Prince. In my car, wherever I am, if it comes on my iPod or Pandora, I have to get up and dance around a little bit. I’ll just start singing at a stoplight and then I look over and someone is starring at me. Whatever, it makes me feel good!

4. After a great workout, I feel…

… Accomplished. What greater feeling is there than just being proud of yourself?

… Hiking. I love doing that on Sundays — it’s so relaxing for me. I’ll take my rescue pup, Bonnie, with me while listening to Prince on my iPod. Or, I’ll bring my girlfriends if I can talk them into getting up early on a Sunday. I try to mix fitness into hanging with friends.

7. No one knows that I…

…Can do a really great Chewbacca impression — it’s so loud — you’ve gotta hear it. I practiced all the time on set, so that’s how everybody knew where I was. They’d just listen for the Chewbacca noise.

8. If I could steal any celeb’s body, it would be…

…Charlize Theron’s. I really appreciate her body. I used to go to yoga with her and she’s just such a healthy lady. I respect her as an actor, but I also respect her body — she really takes care of it.
